Consider a giant hamster ball #1

Stumbled upon your repo and remembered this: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1uzHazKkZ4o

The only issue would be having power inside the hamster ball, though battery packs could be considered (if weight isn't an issue).

Neat! Powering a hamster would be quite the challenge. The PC can be put outside, but a low latency solution for the display/controls would need to be implemented, and able to run on a few 18650s. Another issue is it only has three axis, at that price point the 4-6th at least must be considered. The ultimate goal would be a nasa g force simulator, perhaps built with old theme park equipment. For now this project is on hold as I am busy with uni stuff.
